Delivery Themes

Delivery Themes

We have worked with our partners to identify priority areas for improving care in North West London. The Delivery Themes are targeted at areas of high morbidity with high health and care related costs that are recognised areas for improvement within the sector. These include Breathlessness, Early Years and Frailty as areas where local data suggest there is scope to significantly improve quality and value of care.

Our three Delivery themes are “person-centred” and move from “Symptom” (Breathlessness) through “Whole Person” (Frailty) to “Population” (Early Years). The themes are interlinked and have a common research agenda including the assessment of impacts through the Health Economic Consortium.
